after 3 failed offers and 2 months of commited househunting with our beloved realtor nancy (
http://www.nancyheisel.com/) we accidentally stumbled upon the perfect house in the perfect neighborhood.
i say accidentally because we almost didn't go see it. it wasn't in falls church, where we were primarily focused, and it just happened to hit the listings while lauren was rushing out the door to go see another house.
but we did go. and it was love at first sight.
we were in a bidding war from day one, despite the fact that we put a full-price offer down a mere few hours after it came on the market! but it truly was meant to be. that evening, when we first saw the sellers' names, we discovered that they were good friends of the family. this coincidence sealed the deal. after closing in april, we started the rent-back period. given lauren's complete lack of patience in these matters, those weeks would be spent furiously prepping....
